Death At Dusk

Plans

I think I'm gonna make me one of these babies! 👆
Hello lovelies, I hope you are having a good day!
Here is another update for you! (Please remind me if I make mistakes!)
Hope you enjoy!

Fact of the Day: I recently fell in love with White Collar...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Maybe I should pack food and what little weapons we have. "Kaden! Come here please!" I hope he's awake. I'd hate to shake him out of sleep and tell him more bad news.

Kaden shuffled into the kitchen, yawning.

"I need you to go into mom's gun safe. Bring them and the ammo to me." Mom was pretty big on safety. She got us all basic training with handguns but I'm not saying we're any good at them. To be honest, Angel hates guns. They make her twitchy.

I packed all the food that I can take in a couple bags and set them on the island. Speaking of guns..maybe I can get ahold of Rivers gun.Should I really risk getting infected?

Yes. I need to. The more guns and ammo we have, the safer we are.

I could still hear Rivers beating against the door mindlessly.

Kaden stalked in with moms hand gun bag and stiffly passed it to me.

"Thanks Kaden. How are you feeling?" I cringed. I shouldn't have asked that. Everything is still fresh and recent.

My only response was a nod.

"I want you and Angel to hide in a room. Make sure to lock and barricade it too. Do not open that door until I say otherwise. Got it?"

Another nod. "Now go. I have something to do." He left dragging Angel with him.

I listened to them push some furniture around until it got quiet again.

Oh goody. Now I get to attack my attacker, just to get his weapon.

I think I'm starting to be suicidal.

I lifted the ax and braced myself. I ripped open the door and allowed Rivers to slip through with a groan.

He looked worse than he did thirty minutes ago. He even smelled bad too. His stench smelled worse than garbage sitting out in the summer heat. His skin is gray and peeling. Blood poured through each of his scratches on his face. His blue eyes glowed as he caught sight of his victim.

Moi.

Before I could swing my ax, guilt kicked in. I can't do this! This is crazy! What if there is a cure!

In my moment of hesitation, Rivers shoved me down to the floor with him. He kept attempting to chomp down and make a meal out of my arm but I was able to hold him at bay by grabbing onto his neck. We struggled a few minutes both trying to get our way. Me trying to push him off and Rivers attempting to take a bite.

Surprisingly, Rivers body was lifted off of mine and pushed up against the wall.

"Matt! When did you get here?"

"Long story short, I got here to watch you open the door to this lunatic here!" His brown eyes widened. "What is wrong with you, Sam? You know better than that to open your door to a crazed man!" Matt still held Rivers body against the wall.

I lifted the ax and swung it at River’s head. I didn't miss. How do I know that? By the blood soaking my clothes. Yummy!

I gagged.

"Are you crazy Sam! You nearly hit me!" He moved away and let Rivers body sag to the floor.

I rolled my eyes. He can be so dramatic. I'm kinda surprised how well I'm taking this..I think I need to think things over sometime.

"Chill out, I know how to aim."

"Chill out I know how to aim." He mocked. "You dumbass! You may know how to aim but I want to know what the hell you think you are doing? You have TWO siblings in this house that you need to take care of! Quit being an idiot and let's figure out a plan! The city is in chaos, Sam. There is no way in hell we could make it out there!"

"So I'm guessing you saw everything?"

"Oh I did alright. It’s too dangerous to go out there now. Should we hole up or pack up the car? You're vote."

If we were to stay, we could get overrun. And if we were to go, we could get attacked and someone can get hurt. But what if we run out of food? We need to eat to survive.

"I vote to leave"

"Well okay then. Let's pack up."

"That's mostly handled. Get Angel and Kaden for me. Tell then to get some clothes for the trip." I respond. I hope this works.

Now where should we go is the question..
